CUPA PIZARRAS natural slate in the restoration of the Shepard-Pruden Memorial Library

Our CUPA Heavy 14 natural slate was the perfect choice for the roofing material of the building, which has been renovated and expanded in 2008 to its current 12,000 square meters.

CUPA HEAVY 14 NATURAL SLATE

CUPA Heavy 14 natural slate is a pale grey slate with a smooth surface. Split into a thickness of 7-8mm, it can withstand the Ederton’s weather.

Natural slate is supremely durable, waterproof and environmentally friendly. It is also virtually maintenance free, once installed, making it the ideal material to enhance any building.
